User talk:SPat/Archives/2013/April


You're invited...

to two upcoming Bay Area events:

  • Maker Faire 2013, Sat/Sun May 18-19, San Mateo -- there will have a booth about Wikimedia, and we need volunteers to talk to the public and ideas for the booth -- see the wiki page to sign up!
  • Edit-a-Thon 5, Sat May 25, 10-2pm, WMF offices in San Francisco -- this will be a casual edit-a-thon open to both experienced and new editors alike! Please sign up if on the wiki page if you can make it so we know how much food to get.

I hope you can join us at one or both! -- phoebe / (talk to me) 17:42, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Twenty Negro Law

Hey--I was just cleaning up some stuff on my talk page, and I stumbled onto your gracious notification from some time back when you let me know you'd reviewed my article entitled Twenty Negro Law. I couldn't remember having read your message before, and I can't figure out why--but anyway, I wanted to thank you (very belatedly!) for your kind words and thoughts, and for the time you spent reading that article. Thanks again!! - Ecjmartin (talk) 00:03, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Just did what I should have done first time, and scanned your talk page; guess I *did* tell you thanks, earlier (LOL!)! They say the memory's the first thing to go... So since I'm here--thanks again!! - Ecjmartin (talk) 00:09, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Nevermind, it's always a pleasure to be thanked :) SPat talk 14:00, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Jan Hendrik Schön.jpeg

 

Thanks for uploading File:Jan Hendrik Schön.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 18:59, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited High-temperature superconductivity, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Conductivity (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
